Upcoming Mafia Games
This thread was created because I have a neat idea for a game which I shall entitle Color Mafia.
But there's two issues.
First, having run the game right before this I don't want to step over anybody who also has a neat idea they'd like to run with.
Secondly I don't want to incur player burnout by playing too many intense games back to back.
So for the first issue, if anybody has a great idea for a game they'd like to run this is the thread to share it in.
As for the second issue, if you've been playing, how much of a recharge time do you think there should be between games?

Re: Upcoming Mafia Games
Radical. I'd say about week or two between games. Or maybe a few cokes?
Next games should start in April considering the wide-spread celebration of Spring Break. Between rainy weather people shall post. Color concepts sounds wicked for Springtime.

Re: Upcoming Mafia Games
Does a "Death Note" theme already exist?
I could see a really tripped out game with that theme! Maybe even 'Akiras' who don't know they are (or not). Definitely traitors for sure. This could be awesome! With all of the characters in that series you could find ties to traditional actions / roles. Maybe the killers job would be to discover names through standard investigative measures OR deals that can be made at ramdom throughout the game with shimigami who make offer known randomly OR by touching a town with their deathnotes (this could be a town or scum option). Investigators who may not be Akira but who have the 'eye of the shimigami' ? Maybe the catch for either side is that you could up and die at an unspecified time/night since you cut your life in half in the series for choosing that (confusing for everyone). Just marvel at the possibilities of epic win if orchestrated properly! Many details would need to be worked out but it could happen.

Re: Upcoming Mafia Games
I'm going to start working on a Nancy Drew mafia once this game is over. It'll take me some time to prep, though, so I'll go to the end of the line.

Re: Upcoming Mafia Games
Death Note would be a pretty bad ass theme.

Interested in working together on it Megs?....Nightson"....both?
It would be awesome! Between the three of us we could hammer it out easily. I'm thinking that we would need at least 12 to 15 players to have a good test run. Also we could base it off traditional mafiascum roles but add a few twists.
Players would need to research the manga or they can even watch the series on hulu to get ideas on what could happen based on action names and orders.
Is it obvious that I am excited about this?

Re: Upcoming Mafia Games
I'm going to lose a lot of nerd cred when I admit that I have only the faintest idea what Death Note is, aren't I?
